Empire

You raise an empire to see it fall
And build new bridges to burn them all
What makes you better leaves you worse
To bear the weight of this curse
A king with no crown I scream aloud
Hoping one day I'll make you proud
When this all comes to an end
We'll look and laugh at the past, my friend

And I can see things clear now

(Oh) Yeah, we'll never stop until we're dead
(Oh) Yeah, these scars I've earned I wear with no regret
(Oh) Yeah, your wasted words have turned me deaf
(Oh) Yeah, this empire will be all that we have left

When our loved ones are made of dreams
The hope we give belongs to thieves
Stand up tall and hope to thrive
As the devil says "enjoy the ride"
Take a deep breath and disappear
Once you've been heard, it all comes clear
Heal broken bones and break this cast
Build a future, make it last

And I can see things clear now

(Oh) Yeah, we'll never stop until we're dead
(Oh) Yeah, these scars I've earned I wear with no regret
(Oh) Yeah, your wasted words have turned me deaf
(Oh) Yeah, this empire will be all that we have left

This is who I'm supposed to be
Even if I have to crawl
This is how it's meant to be
I will be there for it all
This is who I'm supposed to be
Even if I have to crawl
This is how it's meant to be
I will be there for it all

(Oh) Yeah, we'll never stop until we're dead
(Oh) Yeah, these scars I've earned I wear with no regret
(Oh) Yeah, your wasted words have turned me deaf
(Oh) Yeah, this empire will be all that we have left
